Fire Curtain Servicing: The Rules and Regulations

POSTED BY Coopers Fire, 30.05.2016,

Smoke and fire curtains, being used in place of traditional non-load bearing walls or sprinkler systems, offer great flexibility to designers and architects. They enable open plan areas to be larger than permitted under the current building regulation recommendations. However, since they replace other fire safety measures, fire curtain servicing is of the highest importance. They play a vital life safety role and must be maintained to the highest standards, to ensure they will perform as expected in the event of a fire.
